The Best Breweries and beer In Scottsdale, Arizona
Goldwater Brewing Co

Goldwater Brewing Co is a family-owned-and-operated taproom in Old Town Scottsdale. The sleek, no-frills, all-about-the-beer establishment serves 12 local beers all poured straight from the tanks. This is the place for you if you prefer an expansive taproom.
We recommend starting with Desert Rose, made with organic Arizona cactus fruit and other botanicals. Make sure to try the Hop Chowda IPA and prepare for a treat to your taste buds. This IPA packs a hoppy, juicy mango punch, with citrus flavors.

Fate Brewing Co
Known for creating some of the best craft beers in Arizona, Fate Brewing Co is a small-batch brewpub. From pale ales and Hefeweizens to IPAS and stouts, this one has something for everyone.
The taps at Fate rotate frequently with seasonal selections, so make sure to try some. We recommend a pint with Fried Ribs or a “Twists of Fate” Bavarian pretzel. Everyone loves a clever name and a little bit of chocolate, end your visit with a smooth dessert-like stout, ‘The Good Life Imperial Stout’!
